Welcome to the co-ordinating page of the New Media and Technology Law @ Work workshops

 

About these workshops

 

The Web and information technology are important components of an increasing number of businesses' operational and marketing initiatives.  It therefore becomes important that businesses are aware of the some of the issues that could arise through their use of the Web and information technology generally, as those issues pertain to them.  Our aim is to introduce you to many of these issues through these workshops and perhaps give you a few ideas about how to approach these issues in a constructive and more effective manner.

 

Topics we intend to cover will include:

  • The risk of defamation through the use of social media;
  • An overview of intellectual property rights issues on the Web;
  • Open content licensing options;
  • Protecting your relationships with your customers;
  • Technology risks in the workplace;
  • Corporate governance as it related to technology risks;
  • Information and network security concerns;
  • Risk assessments to detemine your possible exposure.

 

Our first workshop took place on 30 October 2007 at the FNB Conference Centre on Grayston Drive in Sandton.  The first workshop was well received and we look forward to the next workshop in due course.

 

We only have space for 35 delegates so space is limited so please send us (either Paul or Daniella) an email with your name and email address to book a seat.  Alternatively you can download a Registration Form here and information about the event here.
